Hey there! I was the Operations Manager for a high end doggie daycare/boarding/spa in Seattle, WA for 2 years. I have been trained in first aid, dog behavior, dog body language, and am familiar with all the different breeds and breed tendencies. I love to hike and walk and can play fetch with your pup for hours. A tired dog is a happy dog! I watched dogs through the pet sitting platform for years after my dog passed away. Then I fostered dogs for the Northwest Boxer Rescue for 5 years. A year ago I finally adopted my own Boxer. I believe in routine for a pup, and will follow your normal schedule as much as possible. Every dog is different and I will do my best to meet their needs while you are away or I take them for a walk. If they need a structured walk to get some energy out, I can take them for a quick 3 miles, or if they are a bit older and need a sensory walk, I can slow down the pace and let them sniff and enjoy. Whatever the needs of your pup - lets talk!

Heather was a wonderful addition to our family. She was our part-time nanny (3 days a week) for 4 months while we transitioned into a new town, and she will continue to be our go-to babysitter. She jumped right in to our daily routine, and both my 9 month old son and rescue dog took to her quickly. Because of the pandemic, my son was used to being around either myself or his dad 24/7, but Heather made the transition easy! She is reliable, easy-going, responsible, and fun. We are so grateful to have found her.
